Dollar General fiscal 2026 earnings and guidance

Overview

Dollar General reported strong second-quarter fiscal 2026 results, marked by a 5.2% increase in net sales to $11.29 billion and a 33.8% rise in GAAP net income to $550.3 million. The company saw a 2.0% increase in customer traffic and expanded operating margins to 6.81%.

Growth was partially supported by tariff refunds, which contributed approximately 81 basis points to the gross margin. CEO Todd Vasos indicated that a significant portion of these refunds was reinvested into targeted promotions and lower everyday prices.

Following these results, the company raised its full-year fiscal 2026 guidance. The updated sales growth outlook is now a range of 4% to 4.3%, up from the previous projection of 3.7% to 4.2%. Additionally, the company issued an EPS forecast of $7.80 to $8.00, surpassing consensus estimates.
